- Water (e.g. ad libitum): Tap water ad libitum
- Acclimation period: at least 5 days

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 20±3
- Humidity (%): 50±25
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
the test item is not an irritant to eyes
Executive summary:

0.1 g of the test substance was administered into the conjunctival sac of in each case one rabbit eye of 3 females and after 24 h the treated eyes were rinsed with physiologic saline.

Evaluation of eye irritation was made according to Draize.

According to the classification criteria Oxaphthalimid is not irritating to eyes.
